Is Florida the hot spot for debt relief scams?????

17 years 7 months ago
Is Florida leading the way for debt settlement SCAMS? Almost every company I inspect they somehow can be traced to Florida. And for the most part they are all in the same towns. Same goes for those fake trade associations. Why Florida?

 

I thought a debt was settled...

17 years 7 months ago
I owed a debt to May Department Stores, now purchased by Macy's, of a little over $2000. They sued me back in 2005. I, luckily, had an attorney. He validated the debt and we made an offer to settle for $800. They countered for $1300. We countered again for $1100. Their attorney said they would get back to us. In 2006, after months of no response from May/Macy's, my attorney informed me that the case had been dismissed. A few months later, Macys began sending me new billing statements for the full amount. In 2007, the debt went to a new debt collecter, Titan Management LLC.

But there are traps to know about before you begin.

Debt Settlement or Bankruptcy?

17 years 7 months ago
Divorced August 1, 2008 in Washington State. Awarded three debts ($34K total) in the divorce: two Lines of Credit and one credit card. I was never a joint owner on any of these debts which has been confirmed by the creditors. On the advice of my divorce attorney, I reluctantly took the debts because I received the majority of the assets (i.e. household furniture), my ex used the debts to pay the mortgage on the house (which we sold at a loss) and my ex has been unemployed for almost two years. My yearly income is approx. $40K; my ex was employed at $135K before being fired.

Storefront PDL Ohio

17 years 7 months ago
I have defaulted on a storefront PDL. Of course theys aid they cannot accept payment for less than the amount of a check I had written. Well I have another 15 days to come up with the full amount before either being sent to a 3rd party collection agency or have legal charges put against me. I'm sure that means they will take me to Civil Court and garnish my wages --- which would be bad. My question is --- I am in Ohio ---- the storefront manager said they don't mess around with these situations and they will even send somebody to my place of employment. is that legal?
